Cant see that myself RednWhite, there are a few county players from Intermediate clubs. Should the aim in a small county not be to look at the top 2/3 players per club in the Intermediate grade?

Have to agree with Rhodejim.

Ronan Heavey would start for ANY other senior club in the county!

ronan should have the junior player of the year last year.

yeah, hopefully ronan will get a start with rhode seniors this year,but the forward line kind of picks its self.
10-niall darby (although i heard this morning he did his cruciate ligament in) 11.roy 12.Glenn O'connal 13.anton 14.paschal 15. nialler. -
ronan not a well known wing forward so the pecking order for one that spot would be mark cole,james coffy,ronan,david hope,gareth hickey.

its not a bad forward line for rhode intermediate team, but i still think walsh island should win it.

Could Paul Corrigan from Cappincur be another option on this team?He could be used as corner back.
